There's an emacs for the GS, don't know about the //e.

Hmph. After I spent an afternoon playing with X windows on a Mac IIx, I 
wouldn't _want_ to see X windows on a GS.  A IIx is running at 16mhz, and it
still was pretty slow.  Maybe on the IIxi (whoops, not out yet :^) running at
33 (or is it 40) mhz, or maybe even a 20mhz 65816 GS, but not at 2.8mhz.  
'Course, if I was porting the X server over, I'd skip the C and code directly
in 65816... probably alot faster, given the status of 65816 C compilers.
